United Nations DHC-5 Buffalo
FSX De Havilland CC-115 (DHC-5) Buffalo, Canadian Forces. This model depicts CC-115 s/n 115461 in United Nations peacekeeping livery. On August 9th 1974 this aircraft was shot down by Syrian SAM missiles whilst flying from Beirut to Damascus on U.N. peacekeeping duties. The aircraft was completely destroyed and the crew of 9 were all lost. As a tribute to the crew, the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum (CWH), Hamilton, Ontario has restored a derelict Buffalo to static display condition and painted it to replicate 115461 in it’s U.N. livery. This restored aircraft is now on public display and CWH are also using MSFS, with this PAD model loaded, to give visitors a feel of how 461 looked when operational. Full package for FSX/SP2, panel, VC and custom sounds. Full model animations including animated flight crew. Flying tips and html check/ref lists included.
